Second Nature Tours | Duke Forest and Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University

 

Join the Duke Forest and the Nasher Museum of Art for a special tour series in honor of the Nasher’s upcoming exhibit Second Nature: Photography in the Age of the Anthropocene (open now through January 5, 2025). Explore visual expressions of the Anthropocene — the geological epoch in which human activity has had a marked impact on the global climate — through the exhibit’s contemporary photography and apply the concept to our local context during a visit to the Duke Forest.

Space is limited, and we hope to engage a mix of audiences associated with the Duke Forest and the Nasher Museum of Art. The first 10 slots for each tour will be first-come, first-served, and the remaining slots will be filled from a waitlist. We ask interested participants to register for only one tour in the series. Thank you for your understanding.

 

Saturday, September 21 from 10am-1pm
Exploring Second Nature starting at the Nasher Museum of Art and ending in the Duke Forest. Limited to 30 participants. Optional: Participants are welcome to book a reservation at the Nasher Café for after the tour.

Saturday, October 5 from 10am-12pm
Exploring Second Nature in the Duke Forest, with participants invited to visit the Nasher Museum’s exhibit independently, on their own. Limited to 40 participants.

The registration form includes additional details and accessibility information for these tours. If you have any accessibility considerations that you would like to make our staff aware of, please let us know in your sign-up response.
